I build bespoke hand built wheels in Bristol, UK. Buy from me and you’ll get lovingly laced wheels to perfectly suit your needs. With a wealth of knowledge and skill coupled with high quality components and tools your next pair of wheels will rank amongst the best.

Be your wheels anything from lightweight road race or winter training wheels, a pair of superb downhill wheels for the hard knocks, or touring and tandem sets to take you across the globe, all is possible.

Excellent independent wheel building. I have received nothing but great, friendly service from Ryan.
It's great to see someone working so passionately and meticulously. I did experience some issues with an early wheel build, but thanks to the lifetime guarantee offered, Ryan re-built my wheels without any fuss.
I was back rolling on my beautiful, well built road wheels in almost no time.
Highly worth checking out; I'm sure he'll make you a brew while you chat requirements.

Quick response to first contact, and nothing was too much trouble. Rebuilt my wheel to my requirements, and explained what he'd done, which has been spot on since. Workshop is conveniently located for Bath as well as Bristol and has easy free parking outside - bonus. Will definitely be using Ryan for my future wheel building and maintenance.

Very pleased with the wheels Ryan has built for my tourer and with his service. Not long after picking up my wheels I hit a very deep pothole at speed with a heavily loaded rear pannier rack and the wheel only went out very slightly where I think most wheels would have completely collapsed under the impact. Ryan was more than happy to true the wheel for me for free after this accident, offered lots of useful advice and gave me some free spokes ready for my travels!

Ryan built me a rear wheel so that my road bike could take heavier loads when touring. He went through all the options with me, helping me to choose and understand the best for my bike and what I wanted to do with it. The wheel is fantastic and has got me and my heavily laden panniers around the UK and France without fail. He's always helpful and available for advice and takes time to get to know and understand his customers and their bike needs. I'd definitely recommend him and his skills.
